Thalamo-Lesional Connectivity Signatures of Bilateral Tonic-Clonic Seizures in Focal Cortical Dysplasia-Related Epilepsy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common etiology of drug‐resistant epilepsy in children. Focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) mark a high risk of drug‐resistant epilepsy and involve thalamocortical circuitry in their generation and propagation.

Focal Cortical Dysplasia [PDF]
Focal cortical dysplasias are common malformations of cerebral cortical development and are highly associated with medically intractable epilepsy. They have been classified into neuropathological subtypes (type Ia, Ib, IIa, IIb, and III) based on the severity of cytoarchitectural disruption--tangential or radial dispersion, or loss of laminar structure-

A quantitative study of white matter hypomyelination and oligodendroglial maturation in focal cortical dysplasia type II. [PDF]
A diagnostic feature of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increased subcortical white matter (WM) signal on T2 sequences corresponding to hypomyelination, the cause of which is unknown.

Focal cortical dysplasias are among the most common causes of intractable epilepsy in children. As the neuropathology of these conditions has been better clarified, the nomenclature has undergone numerous revisions. Their recognition has grown with the use of neuroimaging, and recent advances in imaging technology will further improve detection ...

A Case of a Solitary Cortical Tuber with No Other Manifestations of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Mimicking Focal Cortical Dysplasia Type II with Calcification [PDF]
Cortical tubers are one of the typical intracranial manifestations of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Multiple cortical tubers are easy to diagnose as TSC; however, a solitary cortical tuber without any other cutaneous or visceral organ manifestations ...

Focal Cortical Dysplasia in Pediatric Epilepsy [PDF]
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common cause of intractable focal epilepsy in children undergoing epilepsy surgery. In these patients, seizures usually develop in early childhood and are often explosive from their onset. This review summarizes

Surgery for focal cortical dysplasia [PDF]
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) frequently is associated with medically intractable epilepsy.1–3⇓⇓ The advent of powerful neuroimaging technology has revolutionized the identification and management of this difficult group of disorders. Despite increasing awareness, surgery historically yields less-promising results than other well-recognized epilepsy ...

Language lateralization mapping (reversibly) masked by non-dominant focal epilepsy: a case report
Language lateralization in patients with focal epilepsy frequently diverges from the left-lateralized pattern that prevails in healthy right-handed people, but the mechanistic explanations are still a matter of debate.

Cortical dysplasia or focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is one of the most common causes of seizures and childhood epilepsy. It is one of some malformation types of cortical development. By using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or another radiographic modality, it is not easy to detect its abnormalities.
